From a new 5-star Resonator and returning characters to limited-time redeem codes, new weapons, and exclusive cosmetics, there is plenty for players to look forward to.

Wuthering Waves Version 3.8, titled "Lilies in a Dying Dream", will officially launch on November 12, 2026. The update introduces the new Resonator Lily, brings back several popular characters, and features new weapon banners, login rewards, and character customization options.

Here is a complete overview of the Wuthering Waves 3.8 livestream, including the character and weapon banner schedule, redeem codes, maintenance compensation, and other highlights.

Version 3.8 Livestream Codes & Rewards

During the Version 3.8 Special Broadcast, Kuro Games released three limited-time redeem codes. Each code provides 100 Astrite, allowing players to collect up to 300 Astrite in total, along with additional upgrade materials and Shell Credits.

Here are all three codes and their corresponding rewards:

Redemption Deadline: November 8, 2026, at 07:59 PT (15:59 UTC).

Version 3.8 maintenance compensation

These livestream codes have now expired, so players who missed the deadline can no longer claim their rewards. But you can still receive the Version 3.8 maintenance compensation after the update! The maintenance time will be on November 12, 04:00 to 11:00 UTC+8. Eligible accounts will receive 300 Astrites + 2 Crystal Solvent.

To qualify, players must have unlocked the in-game Mail feature before the Version 3.8 maintenance begins. The compensation will be delivered through the in-game mailbox and remain claimable until the next version update.

7-Day Login Rewards

During Version 3.8, by logging in over seven days, players can collect additional in-game resources and useful items.

Remember to log in regularly during the event period so that none of the available rewards are missed.

Gifts of Bygone Dreams

You will get 5 Lustrous Tides + 5 Radiant Tides.

Whither the Wind

The rewards are Astrites x300, Modifier x5, Premium Tuner x100, Premium Sealed Tube x10, and Shell Credit x20000.

Version 3.8 Character & Weapon Banner Schedule

Version 3.8 features two phases of character banners, introducing the new 5-star Resonator Lily alongside several returning characters.

The banner schedule is as follows:

Phase 1

The first phase begins on November 12, 2026, featuring the debut of the new 5-star Resonator Lily. Sigrika and Qiuyuan will also return during this phase, giving players another opportunity to obtain these characters.

New Character: Lily

Rarity: 5-Star | Attribute: Spectro | Weapon: Pistol

Lily is one of the main highlights of Version 3.8. Her potential role as a Support-Healer makes her particularly interesting for teams that rely on the Unison mechanic.

Her associated Sonata Effect is Flower of Tinged Yearning, which provides the following bonuses:

Considering the nature of this Sonata Effect, Lily could potentially make use of Flower of Tinged Yearning as her best-in-slot Echo set. Its team-wide ATK buffs and additional bonuses related to Unison could make her a dedicated Support-Healer for Unison teams, which currently include Hsin, Suoming, and Jinhsi.

Returning Resonators

Alongside Lily, Sigrika and Qiuyuan will receive rerun banners during Phase 1. Players who missed their previous appearances can take this opportunity to add them to their roster.

Sigrika

Qiuyuan

Phase 1 Featured Weapons

The Phase 1 featured weapons include:

Lullaby (New! Lily's new signature weapon)

Solsworn Ciphers

Emerald Sentence

Phase 2

The second phase of Version 3.8 begins on December 3, 2026, featuring three Resonators: Yangyang: Xuanling, Suisui, and Hiyuki. Players who are saving for these characters will have another opportunity to obtain them during the second half of the update.

Yangyang: Xuanling

Suisui

Hiyuki

Phase 2 Featured Weapons

The corresponding featured weapons include:

Azure Oath

Firstlight's Herald

Frostburn

Reverb Convene Events

In addition to the character banners, Version 3.8 will bring several charactor and weapon banners in special Reverb Convene events. Unlike regular Featured Convene banners, these events allow players to select a featured 5-star Resonator or weapon from the available selection.

Starpath Reverbs II: Camellya, Roccia, Phoebe & Brant

Tideforge Reverbs II: Red Spring, Tragicomedy, Luminous Hymn & Unflickering Valor

For Tideforge Reverbs II, players can choose a 5-star weapon as their target and change their selection during the event. Importantly, changing the target does not reset the accumulated pity count. The maximum 5-star guarantee is 80 pulls, and the obtained 5-star weapon is guaranteed to be the currently selected target.

Starpath Reverbs II offers a similar selection system for eligible Resonators, giving players more flexibility when deciding which characters to obtain.

Hiyuki's New Outfit & Accessory

Version 3.8 will introduce a new Deluxe Outfit for Hiyuki called Lune Noire, along with an exclusive accessory named Flaming Sakura.

These new cosmetic items offer additional customization options for players who enjoy collecting character outfits and accessories.

Final Thoughts

Wuthering Waves Version 3.8 brings plenty of new content for players, from Lily's debut and returning Resonator banners to new weapon selection events and exclusive cosmetics for Hiyuki.

Here is an overview to help you remember important information:

With the update arriving on November 12, 2026, players can start planning their Astrite savings and deciding which Resonators or weapons to prioritize. Although the livestream redeem codes have already expired, the upcoming maintenance compensation still offers 300 Astrite and 2 Crystal Solvent.

Whether the goal is to recruit Lily, obtain a favorite returning Resonator, or add Hiyuki's new outfit to the collection, Version 3.8 has plenty to look forward to.
